+Subject: [PATCH] Fix for platform socklen_t on other C libraries than glibc
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+This helps to make sure that QT_SOCKLEN_T is defined to be 'int'
+only when its glibc < 2 and not also for the libraries which may define
+it as per standards but are not glibc, e.g. musl.
+
+This patch is adapted from Qt5 [1].
